Shivas & Seashells

Lay me down once more
Wrap me in paper and take me to the shore
Throw a line with the stripes on that shirt
Tie it together with the hem of my skirt

But we wonder apart
Stood still on the seventh string
Of a scraggy and a broken harp

I want you in ways I can't explain
You're in shivas and seashells and grains
I want you in ways I can't explain
You're in shivas and seashells and grains

Lay me down on the stones
Wrap me in rivers
The sun can warm our bones
Run my fingers through the patch on your shirt
Tie it together with the rip in my skirt

But we wonder apart
Stood still on the seventh string
Of a scraggy and a broken heart
Like a stationary star
Stood still on the seventh beach
Trying to move the dark

I want you in ways I can't explain
You're in shivas and seashells and grains
I want you in ways I can't explain
You're in shivas and seashells and grains

Elusive journeys on shifting sands
Distant pondering without having to expand
Water logged and heavy your eyes pulled me in
Swollen and heavy my heart
Wont give in

I want you in ways I can't explain
You're in shivas and seashells and grains
I wan't you in ways I can't explain
You're in shivas and seashells and grains
